Had a brilliant evening meal for our 25th wedding anniversary. As soon as we arrived we were warmly greeted and given a choice of where we’d like to sit. Both the waiter and waitress were extremely friendly, attentive and very professional. The food was superb, we both had Caprese for starters and the tomato pesto was gorgeous. For mains my wife had the lasagna which being made the way they have it in Naples is slightly different to the way us Brits are used to. My wife declared it delicious along with the crispy salad as a side order. I chose the Parmigiana and a side of crispy potatoes, it was absolutely lovely. The parmigiana was expertly made meaning it was so soft and velvety and not at all greasy. We would definitely recommend eating here you will not be disappointed by the service or food. Brilliant!!!
